A Little Bird's Story

One day there was a young lady that went out her back door to water her father's herb garden.  Her dog would always follow her out the door without exception.   The little herbs required sunlight and water along with her tender care.  She was busy with her tasks when she heard the little bird's story.  He caught her attention with a little sqwak.  She lifted her head and watched as his story unfolded. 

He was so teeny, too little to fly

He jumped and he waddled  and looked ready to cry

The bird wasn't scared, he was shaking with fear

For, you see, her dog was getting too near

The dog is big, and yes he is strong

The bird tried to run he didn't have long

He went to a bush and tried to hide

But in came a  nose sniffing inside

The little birdie jumped back out

He filled up his lungs and blasted a shout

Two great big birds heard his cry

They flew right over to save the little guy

The three of them sqwaked and made such a sound

They tried to convince him they would stand their ground

The puffed out their chest and flapped their wings

What more could they do to save this sweet little thing.

The dog was on duty, he was on guard

And they didn't belong in his big yard

He would protect her, it was his job

They wouldnt hurt her, this little noisy mob

She gave a holler, Major NO!

You really need to let them go.

He grunted and groaned but went away

Deep inside he was wanting to play! 

Sometimes we are like this little bird.  We find ourselves in the biggest mess and the problem that we are facing seems too big to survive.  Satan will send the scariest thing in front of us, making us think it is an impossible situation.  We must always remember that our God is bigger!  He can and will always win! 

We were blessed this evening with hearing Grace Smart's testimony - it was awesome!
